    Keep us posted. Once the springs are available for 2020+, I'll need to figure out the best solution for out back. AAL, or a new leaf pack.

    Just installed mine along with SPC UCAs, 1/4" top-plate spacers (kept them on from previous setup), Icon RXT pack, and Durobumps ubolt flip kit. Rides awesome. Now for alignment and new tires.

    I've got a set of Eibach test springs, had them on since February, and have developed a squeak from the front left coil over. I've tried removing and re-torquing all the top cap bolts and upper shock mount using blue Loctite. Still squeaks. I'm on stock UCAs and 285/75r16s on stock 2018 Pro wheels.

    Getting an alignment as we speak. Tires are ordered and should be installed next week. Plenty of pics coming soon.

    Really enjoyed my General X3s so figured I'd stay in the family with something a little more daily-friendly.

    Got my kit all installed. I am really happy with the way it turned out. Still running 265/75/16. Will upgrade to 285/75/16 when these get another 20K on them. To anyone already running the 285s, please update this thread with any rubbing issues if running stock UCAs.

    Thanks Eibach for a great product.

    Not sure, but the rubbing was only a couple times while flexing quite a bit. And it wasn't enough to drop nearly a grand on UCAs. I am thinking about getting some, but i have many other projects to complete and parts to buy before I do.

    They're a 13" spring, guessing 600# spring rate. If you had weight in front, you could prob get away with using the Icon 13" 650# springs

    So two questions:

    1. Is a 1/4” top plate needed on the drivers side for lean, or are the springs side specific?

    2. Any idea when they will be available for 2020+?

    Springs are not side specific, the shocks are. You can see that the spring perch is higher up on the driver side shock
